I found on payday last Friday that I'm not being paid my final paycheck until next month because somebody else messed up. I was not told until I asked. I have heard nothing back. Although I have just completed by exit questionnaire. Precisely one 'satisfied' answer, and that's only because I like some members of staff.

I don't have a job. I'm back living with my parents, far away from my friends. I don't feel constructively creative. Everything just feels out of my control.

I don't make resolutions so much as goals, which I'm sure my therapist will appreciate.

1) Start a creative writing blog. If nothing else, it will remind me to write on a daily basis, and nail down things. I don't know if it'll be pure stories and such, or if some RPG stuff will sneak in there (which is what I've mostly been working on over the last few months).

2) Get a job. More for necessity than anything else. I'm hoping I don't need to move city, but that's looking more and more likely.

Everything else (move house, write specific things, get a girlfriend) sort of follows on from those 2 things.

You only really need to start worrying if you hear an air raid siren. Or see a hulking man with a pyramid for a head as he's an iconic series monster, despite the fact the monsters are supposed to represent a personal part of your psyche.

Well, I just finished reading Paradise Lost, which took me the better part of 3 months (mostly because I went on a working holiday for a month). So I wanted to pick up some light reading. But nowhere had the next Star Wars book I need to read, Dark Disciple.

So I picked up To Kill A Mockingbird, because I've never read it, and I'm almost done with it.
